I am 30 years old and my name is steven chisenga from chongwe my hometown. I am a big fan of adventure stories because they make me feel like I am traveling to a different world. I spend a lot of my free time reading historical fiction and trying out new stuffs in my neighborhood.

I failed to complete school, I ended in grade 11 due to me having a bad middle school subjects, which truly indicated that I didn't study hard. This was not the end of my journey, but rather a redirection. I had to set small goals of myself and I didn't think too far ahead, in addition I didn't even give up.

Matching my horticultural skills to profitable service, such as garden coaching, produce sales and landscape maintenance, I decided to start a garden business as a way of surviving since I dropped out of school. Just after two weeks of start, I had to find enough customers who could buy my garden goodies to meet those goals I set.

I am operating a successful garden business and I tailor my crops selection to local demand and seasonal patterns, ensuring a steady flow of income throughout the year. I supply fresh maize, tomatoes, onions also leafy greens like cabbage, spinach and rape. I choose to sell these crops because they are my most profitable high income crops.

Gardening business is flexible venture, but it is also competitive, therefore I have done so main research about competitors in our local area and I have identified what I can offer that them don't. Doing so, it helps me differentiate my business and attract more of customers. Regular gardening helps me reduce blood pressure and manage cholesterol levels as well as improve my balance and flexibility.

I use capital made from my gardening business to reinvest into expanding my growing operation, funding my personal goals and use it has seed money to launch complementary micro enterprise. It has been always my goal to open up a micro enterprise shop in future, henceforth I work so hard in order to achieve it.

I would like to express my sincere appreciation for accepting my application. I am glad you have considered me to be part of this wonderful team.

June is the perfect time to plant spring onions, tomatoes, beans, peas and courgettes. Therefore I am requesting for my first funds on this new project in order to buy seedlings to plant in my garden this month. And I would like to plant also eggplants and hot peppers because they are on demand. I am so very much sure that when these crops are ready, I am expected to make more profit for my time, effort and resources.
